From The Rocky Mountain News, "There may be five proposals being considered to reform health care in Colorado, but only one seemed to satisfy most of the 150 gathered at the Millennium Hotel on Thursday night. That proposal was the so- called single-payer system. One after another, they strode to the microphone - breast cancer survivors, parents of children with autism and even a few people with no illnesses - all asking members of the Blue Ribbon Commission for Health Care Reform to radically restructure the current system."

Here's an update on the regulatory agency roles for Powertech's proposed uranium mining operation in Weld County, from The Northern Colorado Business Journal. From the article:
The Colorado Department of Natural Resources' Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety Public Health will be the primary regulatory agency responsible for permitting and regulating the extraction of uranium in the state, including the proposed Powertech USA Centennial Project in northwestern Weld County. The state issued a report clarifying the responsibilities of various state and federal regulatory agencies during the permit application process for an in-situ uranium extraction operation, as has been proposed by Powertech...
The regulatory process also involves the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, which will rule on air and water quality permits that may be needed and on the handling of radioactive materials, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which will review the injection process for the possibility of drinking water contamination.
